Neymar Trains in Camouflaged Bronze Nike Hypervenom Phinish Boots
Nov 27, 2015, by Pat
Neymar's custom Nike Hypervenom Phinish / Mercurial hybrid boots dominated football boot spottings for weeks, and it doesn't look like the FC Barcelona forward will stop wearing the very special Nike soccer cleats anytime soon. In today's training, he was seen wearing an updated version, resembling the new bronze Nike Hypervenom boots unveiled this week.
Neymar will wear the new Metallic Red Bronze Nike Hypervenom II Phinish football boots until late January 2016, when he will start sporting his latest signature cleats, the Nike Hypervenom II 'Ousadia e Alegria'.
Neymar's Nike Hypervenom Phinish / Mercurial Vapor X Hybrid Boots
Close-up of Neymar's new Nike football boots, set to be debuted this weekend against Real Sociedad.
Based on the silhouette of the Nike Mercurial Vapor X, Neymar's custom Nike Hypervenom look-alike soccer boots come with the visual aspects of the silo Neymar has been headlining since its start in 2013. For this update, Nike has added the trademark 'Liquid Chrome' upper, while the tongue is now of the same color as the rest of the cleats, making them harder to distinguish from the original.
Tech-wise, Neymar's new bronze Nike Hypervenom Phinish / Mercurial hybrid boots appear to be almost identical to the stock Nike Mercurial Vapor X, especially evident in the sole plate and the tongue. If anything, the laces and tongue part are slightly offset to the outside, a design tweak of the Nike Hypervenom to offer an enlarged striking surfaces on the medial side.
Better than the previous edition? Let us know what you think of Neymar's customized Nike Hypervenom / Mercurial boots in the comments below.

Too Much? Turkish Teams Have Side Kit Sponsors
Fenerbahçe's and Beşiktaş' 2026-27 kits have drawn criticism from fans due to the overwhelming number of sponsors, specifically focusing on the side sponsor.
Especially for Beşiktaş the side sponsor heavily dominates the otherwise simple look.
Many fans have expressed a desire for sponsor-free versions of the shirts to be made available for purchase, as the current heavily sponsored designs are seen by some as ruining the aesthetic of the classic jerseys.
Rot-Weiss Essen 26-27 Home Kit Revealed - RWE Returns as Main Sponsor
German third division club Rot-Weiss Essen has unveiled its new Jako home kit for the 2026-27 season, coinciding with a major sponsorship announcement.
The energy company RWE AG is set to return as the club's main sponsor starting July 1, 2026, signing a three-year deal that brings the iconic RWE logo back to the front of the first team's shirts. RWE AG was previously the main sponsor of the club's youth setup, a role that will now be taken over by thyssenkrupp AG.
The new Rot-Weiss Essen 26-27 home shirt by Jako features a predominantly red design, incorporating a very subtle bespoke street pattern across the front. It is so hardly visible that fans first thought it would be a generic kit.
To accommodate the new main sponsor, the previous primary partner, ifm-Unternehmensgruppe, has voluntarily moved to the left sleeve as a co-main sponsor, maintaining its financial commitment to the club for the next three years.
While the new sponsorship deals have been praised by many fans, some supporters have voiced their desire for the club to eventually change its kit supplier from Jako.
